The American Association
for the Advancement of Science (AAAS,
pronounced "Triple-A-S") is the world's largest general science
organization and publisher of the peer-reviewed journal Science.
With more than 138,000 members and 275 affiliated societies, AAAS
serves as an authoritative source for information on the latest
developments in science and bridges gaps among scientists,
policy-makers and the public to advance science and science
education. Founded in Philadelphia in 1848, AAAS is among the oldest
societies in America. Many of today's most prestigious and
influential scientific societies have their historical origins in
AAAS. Anyone may join AAAS simply by paying membership dues. A
membership guarantees a subscription to Science.
